“You have to be educating yourself, building your capacity always and pushing for greatness. Let the Sky be your limit and don’t fall for the hype because you are on radio or TV.
“At the end, there will be a lot of favours and I bet you, that is when you’ll really enjoy. The travels and other opportunities will flow.”
The SWAG president further advised young and upcoming sports journalists to work hard to improve themselves.
He noted that his four decades of experience in sports journalism is built on consistency and hard work.
